Dear Fish-folks, A colleague of mine asked me to post the following message. Please respond to Ronn Altig, [log in to unmask] Thanks. Chris Taylor "There is a female fish that has a long ovipositional tube that she uses to lay her eggs in a clam (via the siphon). 1. What is the family/genus/species? 2. Structurally or developmentally, what is that tube? Does it serve only the genital opening or does she also defecate through it? Thanks!! Ronn Altig." ************************* Christopher M.
